I just purchased a well used kx250f for a great deal, it needs work and attention, but since Im a noob I expect putting it into the ground a few times, so no point on getting anything nice.
I think its 2014 MY.
It is pretty high right now and I would like to lower it so that my legs can comfortably support the weight of the bike without tip-toeing.
I dont care about suspension settings or ride quality, Im just learning how to ride and would not be riding hard for a while anyway.
I wouldnt be doing any jumps just yet.
I know its a bit overkill for a noob, but I believe I can handle it.
So, how can I lower this bike by like 3-4"?
Its seems like 1-2" would not be enough.
Im 5'7".
I reduced the pre-load a bit, which helped, but i dont want to take out too much pre-load.
I removed the seat and will be shaving it down.
What about lowering links?
The fork has large stickers on both sides which prevent me from lowering the clamps more than 1".
I think im gonna take them off so i could lower it a bit more and have it balanced with the rear when i lower that too.
Any advice would be welcome!
Thanks!
